In this study, ultra-stable Cs3Cu2I5 powder was successfully fabricated by employing a Na+ doping strategy, resulting in significant improvements in air-, photo- and thermal stabilities, as well as enhanced PL intensity. The Cs3Cu2I5: 7.4% Na showed the best performance, exhibiting great improvements in stability and a 17.4% increase in PL intensity compared to undoped Cs3Cu2I5. This work is expected to advance the commercialization of copper-based compounds with excellent stability and high emission.
Cesium copper iodide compound (Cs3Cu2I5) is in a blossoming status owing to its advantages of high photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY), non-toxicity and low-cost, which holds great potential in optoelectronic applications. The issue of long-term stability of Cs3Cu2I5 should be concerned before its commercialization. Herein, we fabricate ultra-stable Cs3Cu2I5 powder by adopting Na + ions doping strategy, achieving great improvements in the air-, photo- and thermal stabilities, and the PL intensity enhancement is also obtained possibly due to the formation of a stronger chemical interaction between Cu+ and I- ions upon Na+ doping, which potentially helps to stabilize both Cu+ cations and I- anions by restraining the diffusion of these ions and prevent Cu+ from oxidizing into Cu2+ from the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results. We find that Cs3Cu2I5: Na with the doping concentration of 7.4% displays the best performance, its air-, photo-, and thermal stabilities exhibit great improvements. In addition, the PL intensity of Cs3Cu2I5: 7.4% Na powder gets significantly enhanced by 17.4% compared with the undoped Cs3Cu2I5 powder. Moreover, the performance of the UV pumped phosphor converted LEDs (pc-LEDs) based on Cs3Cu2I5: 7.4% Na powder as phosphor also slightly improved compared with the undoped Cs3Cu2I5 based device. Above all, this work is expected to promote the commercialization process of copper-based compounds with excellent stabilities and high emission.
